Toby22's M3
As some of you know, i went ahead and sold my 2003 Brickyard 350z Track Edition for my new to me 2003 Jet Black E46 M3 with Cinnamon interior 
My 350z if you didn't know, Volk TE37, NISMO Stune Exhaust, Stance Coilovers, etc.
Day1 with the car. Best feeling in the world waking up to this beauty
Car had the following mods from previous owner
-Kinesis F110 Forged Wheels (Retailed for $5k new, lightweight and discontinued)
-Evosport Catless headers (Best headers next to Supersprints imo)
-Borla V2 Midpipe (Best way to controll, not remove that m3 rasp)
-AA tune (all these bolt ons would mean nothing without this. Helps a lot midrange and up top)
First thing i did was go with Tein Stech springs. Was a temporary solution to that 4x4 status
I then sold my Kinesis wheels and got some oem 19's. Oh and BC Coilovers
New wheels again VMR V710 in 19x10/11 +25
NOW some OEM LED Tail Lights + some height/camber adjustments
And today, got myself a brand new Status Gruppe Front Lip
My mods as of now
-VMR V710 wheels
-BC Coilovers
-OEM LED Tail Lights
-Status Gruppe Front Lip
-EvoSport Catless headers
-Borla V2 Midpipe
-Bimmerworld Elbow with K&N filter
-AA tune
-Euro Sliding Tray
-ZHP Shift

tasteful mods, wasnt sure about those rims either in before pics, but the springs and spacers make them pop. that, and if theyre worth 5g then if you don't like em you can sell and get some nice *** volks or something and still have a couple g

1. If i did, my diet would consist of balony sandwich and chicken noodle soup for the next couple years
2. I didn't want car payments, with the e46 i dont have car payments
3. I prefer the E46 design over the E92. I truely believe the E46 M3 is the last true M car. E92 has headed outside the traditional M3 design...and rumor has it the next M3 or should i say M4 is even worse

haha thanks
Idk i think the E46 m3 has the classic timeless design like the E30 m3 has. E36 failed in that category however lol.
I think both cars in stock form, the M3 year vs year has a more classic/timeless look. With the 06+ Z design it's closer with the upgraded headlights and bumper, but the M3 having an older design is still holding its own. However with the Z being a two seater sports car with nice curves, its easier to make it stand out. Simple Wheels and drop will do more to it than it will on a m3.
Here is my Z in stock form
And with the right touch, this is what i made it become
